Given how terrible Teams performes, I’d dread to have merely 8GB to run it on.

I believe you can simply leave it unregistered and it’ll still work indefinitely. Plus you aren’t getting updates forced down your throat, since you’re not connected to the internet.

I despise these blurred backgrounds. I understand if you use it when working from home and don’t have a dedicated office, but so many people do it even when they’re at the corporate office. The flickering is just super annoying.

Nah.

I’m a German who voted green though. You’re just being obnoxious.

The one fuck you apparently give made you write an awful lot about it though.

Looking at the downvotes, it seems to be your personal problem.

Who’s talking about outlawing anything? I simply stated that the internet has indeed become a scarier place compared to the past.

Also, parents are responsible for their kids and the kids aren’t capable of consenting to publishing their pictures as they can’t understand the implications that come with it. Grown-ups can do whatever the hell they want, though I feel a general education on how the Internet works might be a good idea.

Lol, no. Very accessible AI tools can make the pictured kids do whatever the fuck the creator wants. It’s easier than ever to steal identities and ruin lives. The internet still is full of porn and gore but that hardly is the problem. Also, brainwashing via social media is a really big and scary problem. The internet absolutely is scarier then aver before.

Correct. Bavaria once tried the same thing, but then MS went to the local politicians, sucked their dicks a bit and boom, back to MS products it is! Hopefully the north doesn’t fall for that kind of shit, and they likely won’t because Bavaria is a backwards piece of shit of a Bundesland while Schleswig Holstein is kinda cool.

Mate, you should leave your emotions out of these kind of discussions. It’ll just have the opposite effect of what you’d like. Please stick to the facts.

Yeah, BYD is massively subsidized by the government, mainly to try to destroy the western EV market. I’m really on the fence on that one. On the one hand, I’d like our car Industry to be a bit more disruptive and come up with cheaper solutions (fuck SUVs, the German car Industry is just making huge luxury cars that are way too expensive, both capex and opex wise). On the other hand, I don’t want Winny the Pooh gaining influence on the west.

Bakfietsen have been around in the Netherlands for as long as I can think. Some of them are so large that they’re used as a market stand. You can’t really get much in side bags and most trailers aren’t designed to carry heavy loads.

This may be true for the USA. In Germany the biggest killer is agriculture, followed by buildings, then cars and then come the cats. I’m guessing this is the reason for the controversy regarding this topic. Cats aren’t that big a problem in Germany. Especially if you have a programmable cat flap that leaves the cats inside during morning and evening times. During daytime they don’t catch shit.

Cans are great from an energy-consumption point of view when viewing the entire lifecycle of a can.

I have an iPhone for work and a pixel that I use privately.

There’s like one or two high quality apps on the iPhone that are amazing but that kinda sums up the positive aspects of the iPhone. I absolutely hate the user experience. Android is simply better at this.

But I do agree with you. They’re just bloody phones. Do people really still give a shit? I’m actually pretty sick of these phones. The pixel 7 Pro is the first phone that works the way I want it to and I’d like to simply keep on using this phone for the next 30 years if possible because I don’t want to spend any more money on these shitty rectangles.

• can’t charge the phone when the USB port is in use
• can’t use the aux input of any external devices
• can’t use the headphones with anything else
• shitty experience as someone else here mentioned
• …

I like my Pixel 7 Pro but its also my first phone without a headphone jack and I hate it. Bluetooth is such a shitty standard and the USB dongles suck ass too. Why the fuck did they have to get rid of something so simple and practical…

Stop spouting this nonsense please. It might be true for the USA, but other countries have their shot together and in fact do recycle plastic.

Printing on bottles is a thing. Even in vomit-inducing vibrancy and 69 million shades. Problem is, it inhibits line speed. Higher line speed = more money.
